Readable but not very original
Lev Grossman's Codex is the story of an investment banker who somehow gets roped into searching for a rare manuscript. And then there's this bit about a video game.
This book is a medieval The DaVinci Code with a bit of Snow Crash thrown in, which are both far better books if you're looking for something to read. The plot itself is a bit The Ninth Gate, which is an excellent movie if you're looking for something to watch. Basically, this book is entertaining but not terribly original.
